Chapter 56 At Shengjing Entertainment, Shi Yu remained expressionless, her ears and cheeks still…
After Shi Yu and Shen Su were teleported back to reality, the game settlement finally arrived—
[Congratulations to streamer Shi Yu for clearing the game dungeon: Platinum Supermarket]
[Congratulations to streamer Shi Yu for completing the hidden dungeon [A Surprise from Manager Lu] and successfully unlocking [Manager Lu's Blessing]!]
[You spent a total of 6 days, 6 hours, 17 minutes, and 25 seconds in the game instance "Platinum Supermarket," gaining a total of 228,765 followers. The peak viewership in your live stream reached 1,427,569. In summary, you earned a total of 3,146 game coins in the "Platinum Supermarket" instance. Game coins can be exchanged for the player's world currency at a 1:100 ratio and can also be used for in-game purchases within the instance.]
[In recognition of your outstanding performance in the game, you will also receive 5 high-level item blind boxes, 10 mid-level item blind boxes, and 20 low-level item blind boxes. The game items obtained from these blind boxes can be sold.]
Due to the unique nature of the game's dungeons, all player rewards are multiplied tenfold.
[You have earned a total of 31,460 game coins, 50 high-level item blind boxes, 100 mid-level item blind boxes, and 200 low-level item blind boxes.]
Players will have a seven-day break after the game ends, which they may choose to forgo.
Players are prohibited from disclosing any game-related information in their world in any form.
...
The reward will be increased tenfold?
Is it because there are ten instances?
However, it must be said that a tenfold increase in rewards is incredibly satisfying.
As for blind boxes? Although having so many blind boxes is fun, Shi Yu looked at her overflowing inventory and decided not to open these hundreds of blind boxes for now.
Anyway, blind boxes have no expiration date, so you can open them whenever you want.
They did not violate any rules in this game.
Therefore, he/she was granted seven days of rest according to the normal procedure.
The location they were teleported to was still by Lotus Lake, a secluded lawn hidden by large trees—the same place where he and Shen Su had entered the game last time. Dusk enveloped the lake and the people strolling along its shore, and no one noticed their sudden appearance.
After reviewing the game results, Shi Yu clicked on his personal profile in the bottom right corner:
Host's name: Shi Yu
Companion: Sleeping
Number of copies completed: 2
Streamer Level: 15
Followers: 505467
Medals: [Stunning Beauty] [Lucky Star] [Best New Anchor] [Most Popular]
The streamer's level is not based on the number of dungeons cleared, but on the player's performance in the dungeons and the accumulated experience points. If the player does not perform well, the leveling up may be slower. The higher the player's level, the more dungeons are unlocked, which means more choices.
He gained more fans and a few more badges. The badges are exactly what they sound like; the other fixed values remained unchanged, except for the addition of a new one: [Companion].
Furthermore, the "partner" option is listed alongside the "[host's name]" row.
There's even a red heart between the names Shi Yu and Shen Su.
Shi Yu tapped the red heart.
He didn't know what the red heart was for either.
System prompt:
[Your relationship with your partner +10]
Shen Su turned her head to look at him, a hint of surprise flashing in her light brown eyes. The two stared at each other for a moment before Shen Su looked away.
A few seconds later.
[Your relationship with your partner +10]
Shi Yu: "..."
childish.
Shi Yu clicked the heart again, and the system displayed a different message:
Sorry, you have reached your daily limit for gifting favorability points. Please try again tomorrow.
Shi Yu: "..."
Shi Yu looked at the favorability description: Players can gain favorability by teaming up with their partners to enter dungeons. When the favorability reaches a certain value, corresponding items can be unlocked.
[Heart-to-Heart Teleportation Charm] has no affinity requirement; you only need to have a partner relationship.
Shi Yu quickly scanned the other unlocked items; some increased the partner's armor, some increased the partner's attack power, and some increased the luck of both husband and wife by one point...
If Shi Yu had nothing, these features would indeed be quite good, but Shi Yu has hundreds of props, so these features are not worth mentioning.
However, Shi Yu noticed the last column.
Affection level ≥ 10000: Unlocks the item [Resurrection]
Item Description: If a player uses [Resurrection] within 30 seconds of their partner's death in a dungeon, the partner can be revived.
This skill is pretty good.
It seems that marriage does have its uses.
However, his current favorability rating with Shen Su is only 579, which is still a long way from 10,000.
We need to form more teams.
Just as Shi Yu was about to ask Shen Su if he wanted to come along next time, Shen Su spoke first: "Should I come to find you on the seventh day, or should you come to find me?"
"Either is fine." After a pause, Shi Yu added, "How about we meet here?"
Shen Su had no objections.
The current time is 18:12 on March 19, 2019, which means two days have passed since they entered the game.
After agreeing to form a team in seven days, Shi Yu called his secretary and the old house separately. These two days happened to be the weekend, and there was nothing much going on at the company. Since Shi Yu had not lived with his family at the old house since he became an adult, this call was just a routine greeting to his family, and they wouldn't think much of it.
After chatting for a while, Shi's mother said, "It's your cousin's birthday today. We're having dinner at your aunt's house tonight. If you're free, you should come along too. Your cousin seems to be going through a rebellious phase lately and won't listen to anyone. Only you can talk to her..."
Shi Yu's cousin is named Qiu Xiaoyuan. She is 15 years old this year. Her aunt and uncle are both busy with work. Qiu Xiaoyuan has been attending boarding school since she was a child. During winter and summer vacations, she is sent to the Shi family's old house. Shi's mother likes Xiaoyuan very much. Shi Yu also tutors his little cousin when he has time.
Speaking of which, Shen Su had met Qiu Xiaoyuan before.
After hanging up the phone, Shi Yu hesitated for a moment and asked Chen Su, "It's my cousin's birthday today, do you want to come along?"
Chen Su had just finished making a few phone calls and said, "Let's reschedule dinner for another day, but could you add me back on WeChat?"
"After all, we're meeting in seven days," Shen Su added, already opening his WeChat QR code on his phone.
Shi Yu took out her phone and scanned the QR code.
The auricles of the ears are a little red.
He had blocked the other person's contact information just a few days ago, but now he has taken the initiative to add them back.
"Then I'm off. See you in seven days."
Shen Su waved and walked a short distance ahead, then stopped, turned back, and said to Shi Yu from afar, "Remember to remove my phone number from your blacklist!"
"……knew."
Shi Yu remained expressionless.
My ears and cheeks are still burning.
Shi Yu went home, took a shower, and changed his clothes before driving to his aunt's house. His parents were already there. His mother and aunt sat on the sofa chatting, while his father and uncle were cooking in the kitchen, both wearing tall chef's hats and verbally comparing their culinary skills.
Seeing Shi Yu enter, Shi's mother said, "Xiao Yuan is in her room on the second floor. Since she ran away from home, she has been staying in her room all day. She doesn't eat her favorite sweet and sour pork ribs anymore, she doesn't play with her friends, and she doesn't even remember her own birthday... Go and talk to her, and call her down for dinner."
Shi Yu went up to the second floor. He had been to his aunt's house many times, so he naturally knew Qiu Xiaoyuan's room. He knocked on the door three times, and a muffled voice came from inside: "Come in."
Shi Yu pushed open the door and entered. Qiu Xiaoyuan was lying on the bed, looking listless, wearing loose home clothes. The curtains were half-drawn, and the room was a bit dark, but it was clear that Qiu Xiaoyuan was not playing on her phone, and the computer was off.
Qiu Xiaoyuan saw Shi Yu slowly get out of bed and listlessly called out, "Brother..."
When Qiu Xiaoyuan stood up, something fell out of her wide sleeve, which she quickly put away. Her actions were completely contrary to her listless appearance. She even glanced at Shi Yu cautiously to make sure that Shi Yu wasn't paying attention before she breathed a sigh of relief.
Shi Yu pretended not to notice, but he actually saw it.
It was a black card.
It looks somewhat like the black card he uses to activate the game panel.
But Shi Yu wasn't sure either.
"Knock knock knock".
Shi's mother brought in a plate of fruit, put it down, said a few gentle words, and then went out.
"Have some fruit."
Shi Yu placed the fruit plate on the table in front of Qiu Xiaoyuan, picked up a piece of apple with a toothpick, put it in her mouth and chewed slowly. With her other hand, she casually took out her wallet from her pocket and then pretended to accidentally pull out a black card from the wallet.
The moment Qiu Xiaoyuan saw the black card, her eyes widened in shock: "Brother, you..."
When is the next match?
Shi Yu swallowed the chewed apple and got straight to the point; his expression was not relaxed.
"Three hours later..." Qiu Xiaoyuan looked completely dejected.
It's no wonder that a minor girl would be so depressed after being drawn into this kind of game. Moreover, the game rules prohibit revealing information to the real world, so naturally, Qiu Xiaoyuan's family didn't know about it, and Qiu Xiaoyuan could only keep it to herself.
Shi Yu couldn't let Qiu Xiaoyuan enter the game alone.
He has a seven-day break.
But you can also give up.
Shi Yu said, "Now listen to me. Let's go down and have a meal with them to celebrate your birthday. Then you can come with me and tell them you're coming to stay at my house for a few days."
Qiu Xiaoyuan nodded after listening.
Qiu Xiaoyuan's parents and Shi's parents were quite happy about the idea of "Shi Yu taking Qiu Xiaoyuan to stay at his home for a few days to talk to her and give her some advice".
Two hours later, Shi Yu took Qiu Xiaoyuan back to her home. There were no outsiders around, and the two players could share the game panel with each other.
Qiu Xiaoyuan has only cleared one newbie dungeon. She is currently only a level 2 streamer, and there is only one game dungeon available for her to choose from: "Shengjing Entertainment".
Shi Yu could only accompany Qiu Xiaoyuan to choose this instance.
Before entering the game, Shi Yu sent Chen Su a message:
—I have something to do, so I won't wait for you.
Time flows differently in the game and in reality. If he had come out quickly, he could have made it back into the game to team up with Shen Su.
However, Shi Yu swallowed this idea after seeing the game time of the instance.
